Really enjoying this game but stuck at 85%. I'm unable to figure out a way to the third key (the part with the statue hint?). Any other tips? Not sure if there is another way to message on itch.io.

There are two types of statues: the man with the moving arm and the beast that goes up/down.
Here's a hint: You don't need to use both man statues, nor move all beast statues.
If you need a more detailed solution, just reply here and I'll give you a more thorough explanation. But I thought you might want just a little nudge at first.
Ended up completing the game with 100% :) The game was great and I enjoyed all of the different animations and abilities. Seems like it was a lot of work to create!
I enjoyed The Wizard's Apprentice, too. I've also booted up before Conquest of Helios but haven't finished a complete playthrough.
SPOILER-ish?:
Thank you for the hint! I went back and realized I hadn't tried just walking into the statues to interact....I had explored the entire map again, tried exploring the rooms above the statue that was pointing up, tried every ability in different ways around the first statue and in the second statue room, etc.. Oops!
Glad you enjoyed it. And glad you were able to accomplish 100%. I was a little concerned if it would be an issue or not, but you have proved it is very doable. :D
Hold onto your save game data. I'm considering some future updates where those with 100% completion could have some additional content to work through. Nothing solid just yet, as just released the game yesterday.
This puzzle was such a stumper but so good! Definitely satisfying to figure this one out haha! At 89% completion and trying to find the third key. Couple bugs to report but will update once i’m at 100% completion! Been really enjoying the whole feel of this game, great mix of challenging and charming!
